I received this Laqa
& Co Sheer Lip Lube way back in Julys Birchbox. Now purple isn’t a colour
id normally wear so was a bit ‘meh’ about it at first however a few months
later it has definitely grown on me and I do wear it regularly now!
The shade is called
Menatour and is a bright purple and when you look at the pencil it looks a
little garish to me. However this didn’t completely put me off and I decided to
try it out anyway. I am so glad I did as once on its a little more pinkish and is
quite flattering. It is still pretty vibrant so may not be everyone’s cup of
tea.
It glides on pretty
easily, I start by lining my lips with it then filling in the rest after. It’s not
sticky or tacky and it actually stays put for hours! Its long lasting, smooth
and non drying, all points that make me very happy with a lip product.
A bonus point is gained
for the fact it smells like peppermint! Add a little lip gloss and I really
like the results. I would never have chosen this colour myself, but I LOVE it and
it’s made me more open to trying new shades!
Laqa & Co Sheer Lip Lube in
Menatour can be bought from the online Birchbox shop for £14, this
is the only thing that puts me off buying it as I think it’s a little expensive
for what it is.
I'm jealous. This colour is gorgeous. I'm on a purple kick at the moment. Lol. Great post :)
